Video Poker Strategy

To begin, we must remember that Video Poker is available in several variants, in fact more than any other casino game! Be sure you are familiar with specific rules and earnings potential of the variant of the game that you play. This is essential because the different styles and variants require different approaches, the likelihood and potential earnings changes each time.

Once you're familiar with the different variants, you must choose your machine. Obviously, although many players were only able to not obey the first rule, you should try to determine which machine has the best chance to win and learn to take advantage. Remember, the gains in Video Poker are usually much higher than other machines (such as slot machines) and you can also check the room for the house. It seems obvious, but the players are often so anxious that they do not have time to check which machines offer the highest earnings.

Regarding the choice of the game, we recommend you play only one variant at a time. "Jacks or Better" is probably the best known variant: thanks to its relatively high earnings and its similarity to the traditional poker game, it's perfect for beginners.

Another strategic issue to be resolved is the size of your bet. Since gains are calculated based on your hand AND that you have in the bank, it is better to think ahead. If you are looking to win the jackpot, you will need to increase your bets, even if the chances of winning the jackpot are limited. It would be really annoying not being able to touch the huge jackpot because of insufficient development! This decision is purely personal and depends on the amount of money you have available and your objectives. The only advice we can give you is that if you do not look that big jackpot, you should reduce your bet. This way, you save money instead of just missed it (if you touch one day ...).

Once you've selected your game and your machine, your strategy should focus on the cards you need to get rid of. If you start trouble, better to start with a strategic map as this will help you get rid of some cards to get a good hand.

You should be able to decide which combination of two cards, or more, your combination is the highest and then get rid of cards that do not fit into that mix. This would be a good start! Some people recommend to get rid of all cards if they are weak, but even if so, you should, with a little practice, be able to identify at least one card that can be strategic.

Although there are other more complex strategies, it (to keep a good combination in getting rid of cards that do not enter), although simple, should take you far! If you can combine it with a specific game and a good selection of gains, you'll be a brilliant player of Video Poker.

We have included below video poker strategy guides for simplified variants "Jacks or Better" and "Deuces Wild" of Video Poker - two of the most popular variants. For some of you, these tips seem obvious, but if you start, take the time to take a look and try to follow when you play one of two alternatives.
